HTML
HYPERTEXT TRANSFER PROTOCOL -- developed rules for transactions between computers on the internet:
(1) Establishing a connection
(2) Requesting that document be sent
(3) Sending the document
(4) Closing the connection
HTML works well with static pages. For DYNAMIC pages -- text, graphics, animations - JavaScript is needed.
Cold Fusion and PHP are apps that scan web pages for special commands and directives
Oracle, Sybase, and mySQL manage STRUCTURED QUERY LANGUAGE (SQL) databases
Flash animation, Director apps, RunRev stacks can be called from HTML pages through a browser plug-in to display the action or sound or video
EXTENSIBLE MARKUP LANGUAGE (XML) goes beyond HTML where tags can be created describing what the data means and it can be retrieved from anywhere on the Web.
ASYNCHRONOUS JAVASCRIPT (AJAX) uses XML and CASCADING STYLE SHEETS (CSS) to mark up and style information and JavaScript to generate displays and allow user interaction.
